I make it my personal responsibility in life to constantly bring up the necessity of immigration as the solution to age disparity and population decline. There are working people. There are as many as you could ever need, tens of millions, perhaps hundreds. It’s never going to be an issue which can’t be solved with immigration.
I don’t see how this is a solution so much as delaying the problem for future generations to deal with. What happens when the countries the immigrants are coming from start to face the same issue (if it isn’t happening for them already?) It’s basically the population equivalent of the “one more lane bro” philosophy.
It is absolutely happening already. Many of those countries are experiencing issues with being below replacement and a hollowing out of their workforce at the same time. For many, they have gotten old before they got rich, which will make further advancements difficult.
This is the first time I hear this on Lemmy. Usually I hear it on Reddit and if I ask that person questions, they say something like “I saw a black on the bus yesterday and he picked on a lady”

Dude, immigration is the root cause for a whole range of problems if not done correctly. See prime example germany.

Germany’s a pretty amazing country and the only downsides I’ve seen lately is the rise of xenophobic locals pushing politics to the right.
Add Canada to that as well.
